8. The U.S. population was 309 million in 2010. If the U.S. had had the same firearm death rate as Australia in 2010, how many firearm deaths would the U.S. have expected to have that year? Australia’s population was 22.3 million people in 2010. Australia had 236 firearm deaths in 2010. (round to the nearest person)

Answers

Answer 1
To answer this question I would use ratios . I would set this up as 236 deaths/22.3 million people = x number of deaths/ 309 million people. You could use cross products to solve for x. 309 x 236= 22.3x. 72924= 22.3x. Divide both sides by 22.3 to solve for X, or the number of deaths in the US. X = 3270 deaths. Another way to figure this out would be to figure out how many groups of 22.3 million Australian people there are in 309 million Americans. This factor would then be multiplied by 236 to get the number of deaths in the United States. The answer would be the same.
Answer 2

As per linear equation, in 2010 the expected firearm death U.S. had is 3270.

What is a linear equation?

A linear equation represents an equation that has one or multiple variables with the highest power of the variable is 1.

Australia’s population was 22.3 million people in 2010.

Australia had 236 firearm deaths in 2010.

Therefore, portion of Australian population had firearm deaths is

[tex]= \frac{236}{22.3(10)^{6} } \\= 0.000011[/tex]

The U.S. population was 309 million in 2010.

Therefore, the expected firearm deaths in U.S. in 2010 was

[tex]= (309) (10^{6}) (0.000011)\\= 3270.13\\= 3270[/tex]

a used truck for $4,500 he made an agreement with the dealer to put $1,500 and make payments of 350 for the next 10 months that extra costs paid by taking this bill bill is equivalent to what actual yearly rate of interest

Answers

Ist amount paid = $1500
Making $350 for 10 months = 10*350 = $3500
Total amount paid  = 1500 + 3500 = 5000
So an amount of $5000 was paid to cover the cost of $4500 within the ten month period.
I = PRT
Interest, I = 5000 - 4500 = 500Time, t = 10 months = 10/12 = (5/6) year.Principal P = 4500
R = I /(PT)  R = 500 / (4500*5/6)
R = (500*6) / (4500*5)
R = 0.1333..
R ≈ 13.33 %  per annum.

Vicki started jogging. The first time she ran she ran 3/16 mile. The second time, she ran 3/8 Mile, and the third time, she ran 9/16 mile. If she continue this pattern, when was the first time she ran more than one mile explain

Answers

The 6th time she runs!

Answer: So the pattern is 3/16, 3/8, 9/16

here you can write 3/8 = 6/16 multiplying numerator and denominator by 2.

Then the sequence is 3/16, 6/16, 9/16....

you can see that is an arithmetic sequence, where in every step you are adding 3/16 to the previous number.

So the next time (the fourth) she will ran (9 +3)/16 = 12/16 mile

the fifth time: (12 + 3)/16 = 15/16 mile

the sixth time : (15 + 3)/16 = 18/16 = 16/16 + 2/16 = (1 + 1/8) miles

So the sixth time she will ran more than one mile.

Which values of P and Q result in an equation with exactly one solution? Qx-6=Px-103

Answers

Any values such that P ≠ Q will give an equation with exactly one solution.

Answer:

For any value of P & Q except when both are equal , we get One solution of equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Linear Equation, Qx - 6 = Px - 103

           This equation has exactly 1 solution.

To find: Value of P and Q

First we solve the linear equation for value of x,

Qx - 6 = Px - 103

Transpose Px to LHS ( Left hand side ) we get,

Qx - Px - 6 = -103

Transpose 6 to RHS ( Right hand side ) we get,

Qx - Px = -103 + 6

Qx - Px = -97

taking x common in LHS, we get

( Q - P )  x =  -97

Traspose ( Q - P ) to RHS, we get

[tex]x=\frac{-97}{Q-P}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{-97}{-(P-Q)}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{97}{P-Q}[/tex]

Thus, we are get only 1 value of x but it exist if P ≠ Q

otherwise no solution exist for the given linear Equation.

Therefore, For any value of P & Q except when both are equal , we get One solution of equation.

negative skew


postive skew


symmetric


asymmetric with no skew


none of the above

Answers

The first step is the summarize the data in tabular form. We have to mention the frequency of each number in front of it. For example, 19 occurs only once in the data, so the frequency of 19 will be one. The complete table is shown below.

On basis of this frequency table we can construct a histogram to visualize the data. The histogram is constructed and attached with. We can observe that the peak is at 4. There are fewer values on right side of the peak as compared to the left side of the peak. So more values tend to lie in left tail.

When there are more values in left tail we say that the data is left skewed or negatively skewed. So first option is the correct answer. 

The distribution is positively skewed, as indicated by the longer tail on the right side of the dataset representing higher values.

The shape of the distribution for the dataset {9, 10, 10, 11, 11, 12, 12, 13, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 14, 15, 15, 15, 15, 16, 16, 16, 16, 17, 17, 17, 17, 18, 19, 20} can be determined by looking at the tail of the distribution. Since the values gradually increase and then have a longer tail towards the higher numbers (with the largest values occurring less frequently), we can identify this as a positively skewed distribution. The distribution does not display symmetry, and the tail extends more significantly to the right, which is indicative of a positive skew. This is because the bulk of the data is located on the left side (lower values), while the right side (higher values) stretches out longer due to the presence of outliers or a gradual decrease in frequency.

A political analyst predicts Mr. Smith will only get 122 votes for mayor. If Mr. Smith only gets 57 votes, what is the political analyst's percent error? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Answers

Final answer:

The political analyst's percent error is approximately 53.3%.

Explanation:

To find the political analyst's percent error, we need to calculate the absolute difference between the predicted votes and the actual votes, divide it by the predicted votes, and then multiply by 100. The formula for percent error is:

Percent Error = (|Predicted Value - Actual Value| / Predicted Value) * 100

Plugging in the values, we have:

Percent Error = (|122 - 57| / 122) * 100

Calculating the difference: |122 - 57| = 65

Calculating percent error: (65 / 122) * 100 ≈ 53.3%

Therefore, the political analyst's percent error is approximately 53.3%.

A company invests a total of ​$40 comma 000 of surplus funds at two annual rates of​ interest: 5​% and 6one half ​%. It wishes an annual yield of no less than 6one fourth ​%. What is the least amount of money that the company must invest at the 6one half ​% ​rate? The company should invest at least ​$ nothing at 6one half ​%.

Answers

Suppose the company invests x of their surplus in the 5% rate (and thus 40000-x has 6.5%). Then we have that 5%*x+(40000-x)6.5%=6.25%*40000.
We have that solving this, 5%* x+40000*6.5%-6.5%*x =6.25%* 40000 Accumulating terms, 1.5%*x=0.25%*40000 x=40000/6= 6666.67$. We see that if we invest 6666.67$ at 5%, we get exactly the given rate. If we invest more, we obviously get less. Hence, we have that the company has to invest at 6.5% more than 40000-6666.67=33333.33$

The circumference of a circle is divided into twelve equal arcs. The measure of each arc is degrees.

Answers

For this case the first thing you should know is that a circumference measures the amount of 360 degrees.
 If we divide the circumference into 12 equal arcs, each arc will have the following measure:
 (360) / (12) = 30
 Answer:
 The measure of each arc is 30 degrees
Answer:

The measure of each of the arc in degrees is:

                      30 degree

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the circle is a whole of 360 degrees.

Now when we divide the circumference of a circle into 12 equal arcs, then the measure of each arc in degrees is calculated as the ratio of the 360 degrees to the number of arcs it has been divided.

Hence, the measure of each arc in degrees is:

          [tex]\dfrac{360}{12}=30[/tex]

Hence, the measure in degrees is:

Which Number produces a rational number when added to 0.25

Answers

Final answer:

Any number that is rational when added to 0.25 will result in a rational number, as 0.25 is a rational number itself. Examples include adding integers or other fractions to 0.25.

Explanation:

Any number added to 0.25 will produce a rational number since 0.25 itself is a rational number. Rational numbers include integers, fractions, and finite or repeating decimals. When adding a number to 0.25, if the second number is rational, the result will surely be rational. For instance, adding an integer like 2 to 0.25 gives 2.25, which is rational. Similarly, adding a fraction like 1/2, which is 0.5 in decimal form, results in 0.75, also a rational number.

When considering common denominators in fractions for addition or subtraction, the denominator of the resulting number is a product of the denominators of the numbers being added. This is because, to add fractions effectively (or subtract them), we convert each number to an equivalent fraction with the same denominator. Then we add (or subtract) the numerators while the denominator remains constant.

In summary, any number that can be expressed as a fraction with a finite number of digits or a repeating pattern after the decimal point, being a rational number when added to 0.25, will result in another rational number.

Final answer:

To find a number that, when added to 0.25, produces a rational number, we can subtract the decimal part of 0.25 from 0.25 itself. The number that satisfies this condition is -1/4.

Explanation:

To find a number that produces a rational number when added to 0.25, we need to understand that a rational number is one that can be expressed as a fraction. So we are looking for a number that, when added to 0.25, results in a fraction.

Let's call the number we're looking for 'x'. To make the addition result in a fraction, 'x' needs to be the negative of the decimal part of 0.25. Since 0.25 is equal to the fraction 1/4, the negative of the decimal part is -(1/4) = -1/4.

Therefore, the number that produces a rational number when added to 0.25 is -1/4.

550 is 5% of what number?

Answers

27.5 if you divide 550by 5% you get 27.5


Oh, this is easy.

All you have to do is turn the 5% into a number. This is done by moving the decimal place two places to the left (the decimal place, in THIS case, is the percent sign). You get .05

Now, simply divide. Yes, this is a tricky part. When dealing with whole numbers and decimals, multiplecation is quite useless for cases like this, it simply makes the number SMALLER. If you want to find out what the ORIGINAL number was, you DIVIDE. 

So, 550/.05

You get 11,000

This is your original number. That means 550 is 5% of 11,000

To check this, NOW use the inverse, multiplication. 11,000*.05=550
